Our Understanding of Sustainability

At Daimler we understand sustainability as responsible corporate behavior that leads to long-term business success and is in harmony with the environment and society.

We achieve our objectives by anchoring the concept of sustainability as a fixed component of our business activities. We demand and promote responsibility for sustainable behavior as an indispensable mental attitude from all management staff and employees throughout the Group. In doing this, we also include our business partners and engage in continuous dialog with our stakeholders.

Our management structures, processes and systems are aligned with this understanding of sustainability. Everything that we do is based on the principles of law and integrity. As one of the world's leading automobile manufacturers, Daimler strives to achieve a clear leadership position in the area of sustainability.
